Looking to participate in a fun design project?

A group of Austrian Designers are needing people to come and make faceted paper heads which become a 2 metre high totem on Friday,7 Nov, between 2 and 8 pm.

75 Harrington Street is hosting the Austrian Design Discourse from 7 November – 13 November 2014. This World Design Capital project is a conversation between South African and Austrian Designs.

This exhibition is asking the following: What can Austria learn from South Africa, where can one find inspiration, and how can Austria positively influence the South African design scene without appearing to be there to carry out missionary work?

It has come to that time where our guest lecturer Ezio Manzini will be returning to his home in Milan, Italy.

We will be having a farewell lunch for anyone who wishes to come and say goodbye. Draw will be taking place as usual with Ezio's session starting at 12:00.

DRAW PROGRAMME:

11.00 – 11.20: Pierre Alexei (Fashion MTech) mock defense – fashion and gender fluidity

11.20 – 11.45: Laban Bagui (PhD candidate) Participatory presentation and video: “I would like to share at this upcoming DRAW a little video that I will later put on c-san-futures YouTube account. The video is about the trip to the PDC 2014. I believe that the pictures in the video speak of Participatory Design and how it can strengthen a community – in the sense of building resilience by doing something together”.

11.45 – 11.55: Prof M’Rithaa – CPUT/Polimi collaboration overview

12.00 – 1.30: Prof Manzini: The African experience and cultures of resilience. Prof Manzini will be asking some provocative questions, and we are still required to keep our thinking caps on as we participate in this interactive seminar session.

1.30 – 1.35: Bruce Snaddon and Alettia Chisin: Acknowledgements

1.35 – 2.30 Lunch: served with red and white wine and juices.
